Tomorrow we officially become a family of five. It seems unreal. I mean it literally was just last year that Southern Girl came into our lives. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy has passed. It seems like just a couple of months ago that it was October and we found out we were expecting again. Time does fly, as "they" say. The kids and I had a great last day together...we cuddled on the couch this morning, went out for breakfast, went to a couple of stores, came back home for naps, etc, then went swimming this afternoon (who knows when I'll be able to get in a pool again this summer!). Tonight, Southern Boy asked me to sit with him on the couch and watch Disney, so I stopped my packing and sat down. He played with my hair and so earnestly looked me in the eye and said "Mama, do you love me?" I told him of course I did, and he laughed and said "I know that!" We snuggled while we watched some show, and he fell asleep. He seems much more confidant about what's going to happen tomorrow, mostly due to him remembering Southern Girl being born last year, but I know that he knows one more sibling in the house means less one on one time for him (this saddens me deeply). Now Southern Girl is a complete other story...I am so worried about her adjusting to a baby in the house. She is still very much our baby, which won't change, but I just hope she's not jealous of all the attention and time the new baby will require. We'll see how it all turns out, cause there's no turning back now!
I'll send updates at some point tomorrow...I'm not sure how often. Be sure to check out my Flickr page, because I'm sure that's where most updates will go.
